Haka's are dumb and annoying. We get it, you are from this country with a dance you appropriated from the indigenous population you murdered/segregated. Stop doing it at every event with New Zealand in it.

The best part about Haka videos is back when they weren't well known and you'd just get the other team standing there like "umm, are they going to play rugby or loving eat us?!?"

My favorite when was a team did one against the US basketball team, and the US players are just watching it completely confused. Then the US went on to absolutely destroy the team that was doing the Haka.

The non-sports ones are my peeve. Every once in a while those virus "wedding haka" videos start making the rounds on facebook. Weddings don't have to be 100% solemn occasions, having some fun is good, but the trend of trying to turn it into a ~viral moment~ with your "epic wedding entrance dance", whether it's a haka or dancing to the super mario theme is just tacky. Clearly i'm in the minority though because those things get insane amounts of views.

"boohoo it's dropped below 20 the summer is oooover can't we go back to August when it was 35 every day" shut up we keep hitting record high temperatures every year and we have to spend government money keeping people from dying from it. It's far past the point of being comfortable. Good news though it's only going to get warmer and warmer and I'm sure you'll only celebrate it

Man, I had no idea they were that popular. My sole exposure to the haka is All Blacks rugby so you’ll have to pardon my ignorance that it’s that popular. I’m going to continue being ignorant because if I see some video of a white lady doing the haka at her wedding I’m probably going to have some sort of online meltdown. And even the All Blacks get old sometimes.

I know Samoans, Easter Islanders, and Fijians all do. Wouldn't be surprised if Hawaiians did as well. All are probably descendant from some ancient proto-Polynesian intimidation bop.

A lot of people on Nextdoor post asking others to identify bugs and birds they see. Usually it's spiders because people want to know if they have anything to be worried about. I'm happy to help because I'm good at that sort of thing, but those threads attract so many idiots. One guy I'm arguing with said "oh yeah it's just a harmless garden spider, look I even have one tattooed on me" and then posted a picture of his lovely tattoo which was a black widow  And now he's doubling down and trying to make out like I'm the moron.Like, it's fine if you don't know, but just keep your mouth shut so people who actually do Know A Thing can chime in, stop cluttering up the thread with your wrong information.

Haka's also fit well within current popular culture's love of obnoxious facial expressions, like in Youtube thumbnails.

This is like 75% of town/community facebook pages too, and there's ALWAYS several people who declares every single snake a copperhead or coral snake and every spider a brown widow. Doesn't matter if it's a completely different color, definitely the venomous one. The first post will usually be someone with the real answer but they get drowned out by the idiots saying copperhead and "OMG KILL IT WITH FIRE" "what's your address i'll come kill it for you" etc. And if you think they might just be trolling, while some of them definitely are, a lot of them double/triple+ down on it and go with the "better safe than sorry" route.

Commercials are now moving to their own internal plot lines , with the death of the Bud Knight and whatever Progressive is doing, so Peyton Manning doing the same joke over and over for each commercial looks extra bad now.

We had that in the UK with the meercats from Compare the Market.com, who ended up developing a consistent story based around their relationship. They even ended up giving the gocompare opera singer a villain to fight in a small goblin who eats people's money.

I hate military time. Everyone is all "oh it's totally simple, just take this number and add twelve to it" or whatever, which is true, but I never got the brain memory (is there a version of muscle memory for thoughts?) to do it on-the-fly. Which, you know, I can do with real time. The one that is used basically everywhere.

You'll have it internalized real quick. It's like learning a language, just it being afternoon when your phone says "17:00" or it being room temperature when your weather app says "22", worms its way into your brain much faster than having to stop and think. Just like seeing a dog and going "hmmm, el perro" because you are living in Mexico talking to non-english speakers is much faster than sitting in a classroom thinking "uh, dog, dog, perro!"
